New 12" Star Wars Announcement

[tomandshell]

I think Dooku may be this year. The time is right. I mean, he's not going to get any more desirable as time goes on.

Oh, man--I think that is hilarious!! That really gave me a chuckle!

That's an awesome reason to make a figure!!






Oh, by the way--I now see that Sideshow had already told us that the next figure would be another Hero or Jedi. Missed that info before, so my hunches about the Sith have been proved wrong. I guess Leia will be first (to accompany Luke and Han), and then we'll finally get some Darths.

 

[Buttmunch]

Maybe they will have a Dooku and Sauraman at SDCC. If both those figures were made, wouldn't it make Christopher Lee the first person to be in three 1/6 lines? (Bond, SW, LotR)

 

[chamildav]

No idea what it will be, but I'm hoping for Leia or Dooku. Darth Maul would be neat also but you'd think he'd follow Qui Gon in the production que. Maybe it will really be a surprise and they will announce a droid. A two pack even, R2D2 and C3PO. That would definately constitute a surprise.

 

[Customikey]

Since Chris Lee filmed ROTS and LOTR at roughly the same time, do you think they'd just sculpt a standard Chris Lee head and retool it for Saruman and DOoku?

I'd like to see Dooku, now that they've shown us how they will be handling severed limbs. He'd go very well with Anakin as well. In the echelon of Sith Lords, I think he's the least interesting visually, but he'd be a good beginning, with the grand finale being Vader in all his ROTJ glory!

Dooku rules and it would rock if he is next.

 

[darthviper107]

Hmm, I'd rather have Darth Maul than Count Dooku. Count dooku was kind of old. But I'd rather have Dooku than Qui-Gon.

 

[EVILFACE]

Dooku would sweep the floor with Maul.

 

[creature4000]

Dooku rules and it would rock if he is next.

No way man... because... um.. because... well... Maul looks cooler!

 

[darthviper107]

Obi-Wan only got lucky, just wait, if Obi-Wan hadn't won and killed Maul (officially) then Maul would have won----wait, that was a really stupid statement just then. Oh well, seriously I prefer Darth Maul much more than I would Count Dooku.

 

[Deak Starkiller]

Hmm, I say Lando or Count Dooku for sure. Although I am probably talking out of my ass.

 

[Sabertrooper]

tomandshell, where did you see that sideshow announced that it would be either a jedi or hero? I don't remember that at all.

 

[tomandshell]

I didn't see or hear it firsthand. However, I was looking back through one of the Toy Fair threads, and it sounds like somebody from Sideshow announced in chat that the next 12" would be from one of those two categories.

 

[Darth Loki]

Does it really matter if it's not a Sith? Wouldn't that just keep you anticipating even longer? Delayed gratification is the term, the longer you wait for something you want, the more you'll appreciate it.

Does that make it difficult to type?

Sometimes, usually makes it a bit messy too.

Not me. Makes me resentful and bitter.

That's usually called farting
